Title: Encoded cells and cell arrays
Inventor: ULYATE JOHN ADAM
IPC: G06K7/14
Filed: 2015-04-27
Abstract: A one-dimensional (“1-D”) or linear barcode consists of bars (i.e., black lines) and spaces (i.e., white spaces) of various widths and employs width encoding only. Such 1-D barcodes are scanned from side-to-side and information is relevant in one dimension only. A single-wide bar represents a binary one. A single-wide space represents a zero. A two-dimensional (“2-D”) or matrix barcode consists of an arrangement of dark and light squares and uses both width and height encoding. In a 2-D matrix code, the matrix code consists of modules. A dark module is a binary one and a light module is a binary zero. 2-D barcodes are scanned both from side-to-side and top-to-bottom and information is relevant in two dimensions. An example of such a 2-D barcode is the well-known and widely-used QR code. Aspects of the present disclosure provide an encoded cell that represents more than a single bit of information, thereby enabling the provision of encoded cells (e.g., a cell array) that represent greater quantities of information than prior art barcodes. There is provided a method comprising: receiving, by a computing device, a binary identifier comprising a plurality of bits; determining, by the computing device, one or more encoded cells that encode the binary identifier in accordance with an encoding scheme, wherein each encoded cell indicates a predetermined sequence of two or more bits, and wherein each encoded cell includes a perimeter, an alignment mark within the perimeter, and a line pattern within the perimeter, wherein the line pattern within the perimeter for each of at least one encoded cell includes a line positioned radially with respect to the alignment mark of the at least one encoded cell to represent at least one bit of the predetermined sequence; generating, by the computing device, a cell array that includes the one or more encoded cells; and outputting, by the computing device, data for producing a graphical representation of the cell array.

Title: Selective capture and presentation of native image portions
Inventor: DAVIES MICHAEL
IPC: G09G5/391
Filed: 2012-08-06
Abstract: A system and method for selective capture of and presentation of native image portions are provided. In a first embodiment a first image or video is captured at a first resolution, which resolution is greater than high definition and higher than a predetermined broadcast display resolution. A desired portion of the native, first image or video is then displayed at a second, lower resolution, which resolution is less than and closer to the predetermined broadcast display resolution. Accordingly, a selected portion of the captured image may be displayed at or near the predetermined broadcast display resolution. In other exemplary embodiments, video is captured at a first frame rate that is higher than a predetermined broadcast frame rate, and an extraction window extracts frames from a portion of the native, first video to provide improved broadcast quality of the portion(s) selected by the extraction window.
